My name is Chrissie Flanagan, and I have been a teacher for the last eight years within a public K-8 school district located in Northern New Jersey. Over the course of my eight years, I have taught special education in grades six through eight in various content areas, on-level seventh grade English Language Arts, full-time on-level sixth grade English Language Arts, and more recently as a computer teacher for grades two through five. It is during this time that I found a passion for integrating technology in a meaningful way into my classroom through the use of various Web 2.0 tools and Problem-Based Learning experiences.
